The Way Word for the Macintosh Works
The Ultimate How-To Guide for Beginners -- in Full Color!

Just getting started with Microsoft Word for the Macintosh? Learning to use
big league software doesn't have to be difficult--or time-consuming. THE
WAY WORD FOR THE MACINTOSH WORKS from Microsoft Press is the visual way to
learn how to use Microsoft Word for the Macintosh, combining colorful
graphics with clear instruction.

Ideal for beginners, THE WAY WORD FOR THE MACINTOSH WORKS makes learning
about Word for the Macintosh simple and fun. Written in straightforward,
nontechnical style, this book cuts through computer jargon. Vivid
photography and easy-to-understand illustrations guide readers through the
basics as well as more advanced topics. The stunning layout draws them
into the book and encourages browsing and exploration.

While the book guides readers through each task, mixing text with colorful
images, more adventurous readers will find it an easy-to-use reference and
the basis for more elaborate Word projects. The highly visual approach is
designed so that computer users at all levels can quickly turn to the
information they need. Everything from creating a document to using Mail
Merge is covered. Readers also get comprehensive advice on such topics as
Tips and Wizards, forms, and customizing Word for the Macintosh.

As with the other WYSIWYG titles, the friendly WYSIWYG wizard appears
frequently with practical tips and tricks--dialog boxes answer common
questions and provide cautionary advice.

THE WAY WORD FOR THE MACINTOSH WORKS is the latest book in the highly
visual WYSIWYG Guide series from Microsoft Press. WYSIWYG (pronounced
"wizzy-wig") stands for "What You See Is What You Get," an acronym that
describes the on-screen style of personal computing made popular by both
the Microsoft Windows operating system and the Apple Macintosh. In the
world of computers, WYSIWYG means that "What You See" on the computer
screen is exactly "What You Get" on the printed page. With the WYSIWYG
Guides, what you see on the page is exactly what you'll experience on the
computer screen.
